Property Description
On the west side of Main Street in Pennington Borough, the former African Methodist Episcopal (A.M.E.) Church stands as a landmark steeped in rich heritage. Constructed in 1847 and rebuilt in 1876, the congregation was originally formed in 1816, and it once held the distinction of being the third oldest in Pennington. The church's architecture is characterized by a simple yet elegant Gothic Revival style and what truly sets it apart is its potential for adaptive reuse as a home. With a layout that includes a full and spacious kitchen, a large gathering room, three half bathrooms, and the main congregation area with lofty ceilings and stained glass, thoughtful renovations could offer a living experience like no other! Playing off the unique features only found in an old church, the purchaser of this one-of-a-kind landmark could create a new interior with a great room centered around the original altar. The former pastor’s office could make an ideal work-from-home spot near a half bathroom and the kitchen and gathering room could be reworked into an open-concept culinary hub and dining area. All you need is a little imagination. Priced for renovations, this one is definitely worth a look!
